Every project carries its own written warranty, scoped to the actual work. The exact terms are written into your agreement before work starts — that document governs.
The principle
Warranty length depends on the type of work. Finish-level items and structural or envelope items age differently, so one flat promise would be dishonest. Your agreement lists each covered position with its own term — up to 10 years on defined positions.
Typical warranty frames by work type
These are typical frames for discussion at the written-estimate stage, not a promise. Your agreement's listed positions govern.
Every covered position, its term, and its limits are written into your project agreement before work starts.
